About Tony Stampley
Tony, a Louisiana native, first moved to Music City in the early 1980’s at the age of 17, and fortunately saw near immediate success when three of the first five songs he wrote in Nashville were cut by Hank Williams, Jr. As the son of country music legend Joe Stampley, Tony was raised with an appreciation of music at the forefront of his life.
At the age of 17, Tony was on the road with his father’s band and crew, and occasionally would even join him on stage to sing the Moe Bandy parts in the Moe and Joe songs. In 2002, DreamWorks Records, Nashville, signed Tony and released his first solo CD, titled Rebelution.. Simultaneously, his writing career continued to blossom as Tony’s songs were getting cut by artists such as Billy Currington, Hank Williams, Jr, George Jones, Moe Bandy, Randy Travis, John Anderson and Mark Chesnutt.
His 2017 single, “Daily Bread,” reminded the music industry of his talents and landed him inside the Top #10 on the Christian Voice Country chart and was selected by Robert Oermann for “Disc of the Day” in Music Row Magazine. Tony’s second release from his forthcoming album Heal The World, is the single “Colorblind,” a song he co-wrote with Bonnie Swayze. This project embodies Tony’s goal to use the influential impact that songs can have on individuals and society and hopefully bring about a positive shift in our outlook and behavior. “This singer truly believes in the power of a song and how it can heal the world,” said Matt Bjorke at RoughStock.com.
